This is madness...a gynaecologist is sued for refusing a "trans" woman a gynaecological examination.


It’s funny, not funny. Lies, or mental illness, being encouraged, to humiliate us further. To make us question reality. To demoralise us. The weak among us think it’s compassionate to play along. As I always say, if a lunatic points at the moon and calls it a giant block of cheese, we don’t help the lunatic by forcing everybody else to agree that the moon is made of cheese..

Sometimes it seems the Democrats send inmates from Arkham asylum to senate hearings. It shows their real intentions. Pure evil, dressed up in fancy suits:



Here’s the quiet part out loud:

that's an absolutely incredible story. Absolutely horrifying. Not sure it's a political correctness issue, but I'm glad to know about it
Sometimes it’s just too hard to know where a post belongs. I suppose it’s an example of overreach by the government, disastrous and highly immoral. The fact that the Jensens lost their lawsuit despite being right is scary.

And I think that Bret Weinstein is referring to trans activists posing as medical people getting to abuse young children in his tweet…

Coleman Hughes on Ibram X. Kendi’s book about anti racism. Hughes and other black liberals who don’t purchase shares in the victim narratives have offered to discuss Kendi’s ideas with him, but have found him unwilling to discuss or debate his ideas with anyone who doesn’t already agree with them, which - given that his views pander to an unthinkingly modish American left wing - is one guaranteed way to succeed in American racial politics.

How to Be an Anti-Intellectual


From the book:

[The anti-racist amendment] would establish and permanently fund the Department of Anti-racism (DOA) comprised of formally trained experts on racism and no political appointees. The DOA would be responsible for preclearing all local, state and federal public policies to ensure they won’t yield racial inequity, monitor those policies, investigate private racist policies when racial inequity surfaces, and monitor public officials for expressions of racist ideas. The DOA would be empowered with disciplinary tools to wield over and against policymakers and public officials who do not voluntarily change their racist policy and ideas.

As Hughes says, “Kendi’s goals are openly totalitarian.”

By the way, I never knew that Kendi once believed that white people are extraterrestrials…

Backlash?


She’s extraordinary! She’d nailed it and told us exactly what it is. Homophobic. Conversion therapy. Mutilation of children. For this, and more, they get described as “a hate group?”

Her speech should be required reading in schools - and for everybody who’s locked in to voting Democrat…

Look how lucrative it is for brazen race hustlers in America today. After the BLM founders made themselves personally wealthy off the back of gullible folks donations, now Ibram X Kendi has shown how to hustle for cash then make a big crash after his anti-racist research centre at Boston University faced allegations of mismanagement and questions about his ‘leadership’, and now a inquiry by the university is taking place.

The bizarre bigot, who even more bizarrely became white guilt-stricken America’s pet poodle in the wake of George Floyd and the ‘mostly peaceful’ destruction and carnage in American cities, a lucrative but seemingly very easy trick to pull, ‘made the decision to restructure the center to create a residential fellowship program for antiracist intellectuals, creators, and students.’

Leaving aside the anomaly of calling these antiracists ‘intellectuals’ (or even ‘antiracists’ given that they happily spread racism), the centre garnered tens of millions from gullible suckers while producing…’no original research or scholarship, adding nothing of substance to the argument over racial inequality and the precarious socio-economic status of black Americans.’

Now there are layoffs, complaints, and allegations and of course, ‘restructuring’.

All very predictable.

“We recognize the importance of Dr. Kendi’s work and the significant impact it has had on antiracist thinking and policy,” a statement from the University says. “Boston University and Dr. Kendi believe strongly in the Center’s mission, and while he takes strong exception to the allegations made in recent complaints and media reports, we look forward to working with him as we conduct our assessment.”

Sure. Fella who once thought that white folks were extraterrestrial and now wants to rule over a totalitarian America gets a shitload of cash to promote his own special brand of bigotry?

What would go wrong, eh? :facepalm:

The New York Times has an article on the disastrous Kendi centre, and the amount of cash unaccounted for keeps growing. Up to $55 million. Where is it all gone to? Unfortunately the NYT isn’t too animated in that direction, preferring to still believe that Kendi’s insubstantial ideology is not at fault for the absolute failure of anything of substance to flow from it, but instead, “for the rest of us, it’s important to understand that the center’s apparent implosion is more the result of a failed funding model than a failed ideology. It exemplifies the lamentable tendency among left-leaning donors to chase fads and celebrities rather than build sustainable institutions.”

It could easily be both. Definitely the “fads and celebrities” thing on the left displays a shallowness of thought which has had an unfortunate and destructive effect on society, particularly when it comes to race and gender. And of course, the left loves celebrity. Hollywood glamour and rock star kudos somehow fools them every time. But nobody challenged Kendi’s beliefs on the left. Nobody got him on stage and grilled him.

And he wasn’t willing to face interlocutors either. Questions were violence, etc. If you don’t believe it, you’re racist.

Gullibility and virtue signalling are not substantial beginning points. His ideology was bigoted to begin with. But nobody tested it, on the left, which is where the questions should begin. The left don’t question their own, that’s the problem. They allow their worst ideas to enter society with an imprimatur that’s worthless, because their bad ideas aren’t scrutinised.

As for the $55 million? Who on the left really cares where it’s gone? The NYT don’t, they’re more interested in reducing the topic to comparisons in tribalism. They all have plenty of money to splash about and make themselves feel like they’re antiracists too, and of course allies of sick gender faddists.

All with no questions asked..

I wasn’t enthused about his initial statement (it’s factually incorrect for a start :face-with-tears-of-joy: ). But he won me to his side by his complete refusal to apologise. Folks what you’re seeing here is the rare appearance of the XY chromosome. Treasure it!
